Individual oral

Caption: Let’s talk, it helps, doesn’t it!

In the picture I can see a woman holding his hands as she are having some problem, also in the background, or in the top of the picture it’s a men holding a note book, writing some things, this man it’s probably a doctor, a psychologist or a psiquiatra, and all this oscine looks like a normal situation when people go to the doctor to talk about all their problems.
Well about the caption of this picture, I can say that its totally refer about what I said before, because psychologist or psyquiatras help people listen to their problems, and the caption is ¨let’s talk, it helps, doesn’t it!¨, so what I can think of it it’s that the girl on the picture its talking to a doctor about his personal issues, and seems like work a lot, because a lot  of people go to this types of doctors, to feel better with his own person. The caption also I can related to Health, Science and technology, because this issue its totally related to sick people with stress, or that probably something really bad happen in their lives.

Well as I live in Chile about this issue I can’t know if it’s common in other countries like England or United States, but in my own a lot of people go to this doctors to feel better, and in some cases I think that maybe the insurance will be cover it, because some people are expose to a lot of problems every day and probably they don’t have the resources to pay this type of doctors, in some cases this issue can be consider as a weakness just because u are not mentally prepare to receive bad news or just to face  a huge problem, stress nowadays can be a huge issue, probably because of work or school in the case of teenagers, this can be resolved sometimes just to talk to a professional or some friends, and in the case that your family support you, well it’s the best thing that you can do, in my personal case I think that pills are not always the exit to all this problems, I think its sport or just to hang out and have a good time, because all that get you away of all of your problem, but in u can’t use that alternative the pills are the only things that can help you.

The product that they are trying to sell is the new Italian pizzas Digiorno.

Probably the setting of this ad is the kitchen because the pizzas are made in the kitchen, and in the back of the commercial can see some fresh vegetables that are usually use to made pizza, and the pizzas are placed on trays.

People that influence this ad are mainly the chef because they contribute in an implicit manner, although not visible in the commercial obviously someone had to make those pizzas.

In the commercial shows that there are three types of Italian pizzas, prepared with the best ingredients of the country, one of them is based on cheese and pork, the other based on cheese also but this time with pepperoni and the third likewise with cheese and beef.

This ad is dedicated to the hungry buyer and that want to try a good pizza fresh out to the market.

The target group of this commercial is those people who like pizzas and that want to try these new pizzas Digiorno .

The new pizzas Digiorno that are made of Italian ingredients .

The techniques used are the presentation of the pizzas and the ingredients that are around them, also use in the commercial highlighting the part that says new.

Analyzing Quote N°2

Advertising today is being internalized in all of us, and the quote says that advertising can be seen all the time and every day, taking the most significant example of the world that is New York City where one can see that look there are advertising of any kind, as Coke that one of the industries that incorporate global advertising, and an example is known by all is  santa Claus that has been one of the most important examples of marketing in the  history by helping to sell all companies their products in Christmas dates.

While advertising helps us to learn about new products coming to market, but also possible to show that from time to time it may be that it becomes a little visually uncomfortable , taking the example of New York again we can see that for any tourist visiting NYC Manhattan may seem the most spectacular view all the ads in the buildings, but for people who live or have to work in Manhattan all the year may seem something disturbing

   

Bill Cosby Quote Anayisis


In my opinion the words of Bill Cosby has a lot of thinking of maketing and he is talking about what things people that work in marketing highlight to make some products more interesting to the buyer, and also said that sometimes the things that those people highlight is something that is not important to the buyer ,but helps the seller obviously to sell the product.
